Simien Mountains

This 4-day journey offers an unforgettable exploration of one of Ethiopia’s most stunning natural wonders, the Simien Mountains National Park. Start with a flight from Addis Ababa to Gondar, the historical capital, before heading to Sankaber, the gateway to the Simien Mountains, where your adventure truly begins. Over the next two days, you will trek through awe-inspiring landscapes of towering cliffs, deep valleys, and vast plateaus, all while being surrounded by unique wildlife. You’ll cross the Jinnbar River, witness the spectacular waterfalls, and ascend to elevations of 3,600 meters as you make your way to Geech. Along the way, keep an eye out for the iconic Gelada baboons, often seen in large herds, and enjoy the stunning scenery that stretches for miles. On the third day, continue your trek along the breathtaking Enatye escarpment, reaching elevations over 4,000 meters before descending to Chenek, where Walia ibex and more Gelada baboons can often be spotted. Each night, you’ll camp under the stars, surrounded by the serene beauty of the mountains. Conclude your adventure with a return to Gondar, where you'll experience Ethiopian hospitality at its finest with a folkloric dinner, complete with traditional dances, national dishes, and the ceremonial brewing of Ethiopia’s world-famous coffee. Finally, you’ll be transferred to the airport for your departure, taking with you memories of an extraordinary trek through one of the world’s most magnificent landscapes.
